Issue/Introduction

The SpectroSERVER database is terminating. Attempting to restore to legacy from the SCP immediately aborts. Attempting to restore to legacy from the command line immediately aborts. 

Environment

Release: Any
Component: SPCCSS

Cause

Corruption is the likely culprit.

Resolution

To resolve do the following:

1. If the status of the SpectroSERVER is terminated, remove the .VNMDB.LOCK in the $SPECROOT/SS directory so the status of the SpectroSERVER goes to inactive.
   
   
2. Remove all the db files in the $SPECROOT/SS directory - *.ix, *.db, log.*
   
   
3. Attempt to restore to legacy again through the SCP or by running from the $SPECROOT/SS directory:
   /SS-Tools/ssdbload -il legacy.ssdb
